Just watched The Lost King and it was affirming watching a film where the main character has a disability (played brilliantly by Sally Hawkins, who, incidentally, does live with disability).
Steve Coogin again performs exceptionally well, if at times, ableist.
More disability representation in film please.

Franz #Schubert's "Arpeggione" #sonata wasn't composed for cello or viola & modern piano (as it is usually played), but for the #arpeggione, a short-lived musical instrument (like a bowed guitar), and of course #pianoforte... While modern transcriptions are beautiful, it's still a *different* pleasure to hear an #historicallyaccurate rendition by #cellist N. Deletaille, who has been spearheading a timid arpeggione revival in #Belgium: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do9UgdfwM5Q
